  • We investigated the programmable memory characteristics of nanoparticle-based memory devices based on the elementary metal nanoparticles (Co and Au) and their binary mixture synthesized by a micellar route to ordered arrays of metal nanoparticles as charge trapping layers. According to the metal nanoparticle species quite different programming/erasing efficiencies were observed, resulting in the tunable memory characteristics at the same programming/erasing bias conditions. This finding will be a good implication for further device scaling and novel device applications since most processes are based on the conventional semiconductor processes.

  • Visible light-sensitive $TiO_2$ and ZnO nanostructure materials have attracted great attention as the promising material for solar energy conversion systems such as photocatalysts for water splitting and environmental purification as well as nano-biosensors. Success of their applications relies on how to control their surface state behaviors related to the exciton dynamics and optoelectronic properties. In this paper, we briefly review some recent works on single nanoparticle photoluminescence (PL) technique and its application to observation of their surface state behaviors which are raveled by the conventional ensemble-averaged spectroscopic techniques. This review provides an opportunity to understand the temporal and spatial heterogeneities within an individual nanostructure, allowing for the potential use of single-nanoparticle approaches in studies of their photoenergy conversion and nano-scale optical biosensing.

  • Thin Film Transistor(TFT) having CIS (CuInSe) semiconductor layer was fabricated and characterized. Heavily doped Si was used as a common gate electrode and PECVD Silicon nitride ($SiN_x$) was used as a gate dielectric material for the TFT. Source and drain electrodes were deposited on the $SiN_x$ layer and CIS layer was formed by a direct patterning method between source and drain electrodes. Nanoparticle of CIS material was used as the ink of the direct patterning method.

  • We investigated the effects of ZnO thin film deposition methods on the performance of inverted polymer solar cells with a structure of ITO/ZnO/P3HT:PCBM/MoO3/Al. The ZnO thin films were deposited by various methods (spin coating of nanoparticles, sol-gel process, atomic layer deposition) and their morphology was analyzed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The device with ZnO nanoparticle thin films showed the highest power conversion efficiency of 3 % with low series resistance and high shunt resistance. The superior performance of the device with the ZnO nanoparticle layer is attributed to better electron extraction capability.

  • Compounds of Ga, such as gallium oxide (Ga2O3) and gallium nitride (GaN), are of interest due to its unique properties in semiconductor application. In particular, GaN has the potentially application for optoelectronic device such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes (LDs) [1]. Nanoparticle is an interesting material due to its unique properties compared to the bulk equivalents. In this report, we develop a synthesizing method for gallium nitride nanoparticle using non-thermal plasma. For gallium source, the gallium is heated by thermal conduction of tungsten boat which is heated by eddy current induced from RF current in antenna. Nitrogen source for nanoparticle synthesis are from inductively coupled plasma with N2 gas. The synthesized nano particles are analyzed using field-emission scanning microscope (FESEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The synthesized particles are investigated and discussed in wide range of experiment conditions such as flow rate, pressure and RF power.

  • For the major scientific laboratories around the world, nanotechnology has been one of the key scientific issues since the end of the last millenium. The basic materials of this newly emerging technology are nanoparticles, which, in fact, have been used for many centuries. However, the physical properties of the particles were understood quite recently. In order to apply the new properties we have to protect and functionalize the surfaces of the particles, since without protection of the surfaces, nanoparticles grow themselves due to Ostwald Ripening. In this review, the author describes recent technical progress in the field of fuctionalization of various nanoparticles and their applications, so that readers can grasp the overall picture of this new technological field.

  • A low temperature plasma process has been widely used for semiconductor fabrication and can also be applied for the preparation of solar cell, MEMS or NEMS, but they are notorious in the point of particle contamination. The nano-sized particles can be generated in the low temperature plasma process and they can induce several serious defects on the performance and quality of microelectronic devices and also on the cost of final products. For the preparation of high quality thin films of high efficiency by the low temperature plasma process, it is desirable to increase the deposition rate of thin films with reducing the particle contamination in the plasmas. In this paper, we introduced the studies on the generation and growth of nanoparticles in the low temperature plasmas and tried to introduce the recent interesting studies on nanoparticle generation in the plasma reactors.

  • 해수 중 존재하는 유해화학물질 검출을 목적으로 센서 시작품 제작하고 성능을 확인하였다. 센서 시작품은 검지부, 기구부, 구동부로 구성하였다. 센서의 검지부는 ITO (Indium-Tin-Oxide) 금속산화물 나노입자 (metal oxide nanoparticle) 필름을 기판위에 인쇄하여 제작하였고, 온도와 HNS 농도를 동시에 검출할 수 있도록 2개의 검출 부분을 갖도록 설계하였다. 센서의 기구부는 검지부와 구동부를 연결하며, 검출에 영향을 줄 수 있는 화학적 반응을 막기 위해 테프론 재질을 이용하여 제작하였고, 특히 검지부의 착탈이 용이하도록 설계 하였다. 구동부는 브릿지 회로와 아두이노 보드를 이용하여 전원 공급과 데이터 측정 및 디스플레이가 가능하도록 제작하였다. 시작품의 성능에 대해서는 기존의 수질 센서를 참고한 성능 사양을 제시하고, 유기용제를 사용한 검지부와 시작품의 동작을 확인하여 응답 (ΔR), 검출하한 (Limit of Detection), 응답시간 (response time), 오차 (error) 등을 평가하였다. 또한 해수 중 동작 특성을 파악하여 설계 사양이 구현되었는지 확인하였다.
